How do I install the Rekor Scout™ Image API?

The Rekor Scout™ Image API recognizes license plates given individual images.

The Scout Image API recognizes license plates given individual images. In addition to the previous SDK installation options, the Scout Image API is available as a pip package through PyPI here: https://pypi.org/project/openalpr/.

The library instance should be initialized once for each thread. There is a significant initialization time (a few seconds) so you should not destroy the instance until you are finished using it.

This instance is not thread-safe by design. An ALPR instance should be used on a single thread and not shared across threads.
